Those girls look like Thunderbirds puppets on strings!

Hank is wearing different (light) coloured trousers than the others.
Were they "Lead guitarist" trousers?!

Don't ask, Mikey!

Two things strike me

1) The steps are much more exaggerated than usual

2) The dancers don't know the end!

Would you mind terribly if I post this clip? At the half-way point of the video, the chat show host (Frank Skinner) peforms a duet with Cliff of "Shooting Star" and Frank is dressed as the Cliff puppet from Thunderbirds. It's a little goofy but it's cute.

Thanks again for posting this Donna. Those dancers are something else...

The more I hear it, the more I think this is the best single they ever made. Nobody, not even the Shads, has reproduced that overall sound since.

Who played the piano? I assume Norrie Paramor.
